Help Shape the Water Quality Industry
Volunteering on a NEWEA committee is a great opportunity for you to build leadership skills, gain industry recognition, and help shape the water quality field.
- Consider what you’re good at and how you enjoy contributing. Worried about over-committing? In a recent survey, members spent on average 2 hours a month on their NEWEA volunteer work!
- Choose from one of more than 44 active committees—from technology and process, communications and outreach, meeting and event planning, or leadership and ad hoc. Go with what you’re good at or jump into a new area and start building your skills
